Review on Knitters Pride Platina Special Interchangeable by Denise Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Needle tips and cables are very good, but I have two problems

Needle tips and cables are very good, but I have two problems. Some needle points do not thread all the way in, leaving a significant gap between the needle and cable where the threads of the screws protrude, which can cause thread to snag at the joint. Also, the storage case does not hold the tips of the needles in place, allowing them to slide out of position when akimbo. Then I have to sort them all again. Grrr Update: Needle tips now screw securely into cable connections. Initially, a small burr or similar should interfere with a tight connection. Now the needles work like a dream. I still think the case is poorly designed and hence this product cannot qualify for a 5 star rating from me. I now keep these needles in a case along with my spare ChiaoGoo Twist Red Lace needles. I love these needles too!

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
